well it makes for much smaller garbage loads (tonight is garbage night)
but it also means i need to reduce the amount of food i bring into the house.
today i made a second donation to Equality California aka No on Prop 8. apparently there is a big infusion to the yes campaign that needs countering badly. tonight there was a No on 8 TV ad with the latino actors from Ugly Betty.
there is an increase in burglaries in Palo Alto. a member of the synagogue had her house broken into yesterday. i am a trend setter yet once again. we live in scary times.
one of the meditation teachers had her head shaved last week and became a buddhist priest on saturday. we celebrated with more chocolate. a day that begins (Mendocino fudge) and ends with chocolate has MUCH to recommend it.
only 4 (or 5) more days until the election is over. can't wait (as always) for the end to the tv ads. somewhere i read that obama is leading in california by 22 points. wow. that's pretty amazing.
signs of the times: many storefronts and office space for lease. mervyn's, an old department store, is going out of business.
ketzl is in for the night. he was lucky that it wasn't raining this evening.
it is not yet winter. in the last rotation of the mattress, i turned it around so that the plug on the electric mattress pad is now at the head of the bed. so i guess i'll have to wait until next time i change sheets and then rotate it back again. then i need to turn on the furnace after cleaning the filter. so the temperature better not drop too much.
